Recently I wrote a post “7 Great Ways Your Church Can Economically Empower Your Congregation and Community.” This post includes six more practical ideas to help people in ways that complement the spiritual teachings they receive at your church. The key thing to remember about all these ideas is that the pastor doesn’t have to do them all or lead every effort. It’s time to strategically engage the businesspeople and professionals in your church who would be more than happy to share their expertise with their fellow church members and the community.Here are 6 more ideas…

Conduct job search/career development workshops facilitated by HR experts from the church

Connect with multiple churches to host a job fair

Develop a listing of members with their trade/skill and publish a directory

Generate revenue for a career services program by selling ads to the business owners (see #3)

What has your church done to help to economically empower your congregation and community?
